We present our current projects:

Exoskeletons are a valuable tool for supporting workers by either facilitating or supplementing movements or stabilising postures. However, supporting methods or tools for the simulation-based selection and adaptation of exoskeletons in a production scenario have so far only been available for individual aspects.

In our DFG and FWF-funded project ExoExpert - Knowledge-based planning for the use of exoskeletons (https://gepris.dfg.de/gepris/projekt/524694954?context=project&task=showDetail&id=524694954&), we are working with our partner from the Chair of Production Systems at Ruhr-Universität Bochum to develop a novel planning method for decision support in the selection of exoskeletons for manual production processes and the adaptation of system behaviour.
